Gone are the Fun Saver fares. The new fares will be Fun Select Plus, Easy Saver, Super Saver and Instant Saver.

Carnival hopes the new fares will give passengers more ways to save and offer more flexibility when booking cruises. You will also be able to move up from a lower fare. Carnival is hoping that lower entry-level price points will help move the customers to their line. So, without the fine print, here is what each of the categories means…

Super Saver
The lowest rate requires a non-refundable deposit. You pick the cabin type you want and Carnival picks your cabin. No changes are allowed to the reservation after booking.

Instant Saver
This is similar to the Super Saver but isn’t available until closer to the sailing date. No changes are allowed to reservations and cabins are assigned when you check in for your cruise. The deposit is also non-refundable. This one could turn out to be the lowest as it will be Carnival’s version of a last-minute fare.

Easy Saver
It allows you to choose your own cabin. If you cancel after paying the deposit and prior to final payment, you receive a future cruise credit minus a $50 service fee (per person).

Fun Select
One of the most open fares offers freedom with an increased price. That flexibility means you are allowed to upgrade your cabin. You will also receive a free two-category upgrade within your stateroom category, based on availability. Make changes to your reservation before final payment and there are no any penalties; that includes ship and sail dates, name changes and cancellations.

Fun Select Plus
The fare that’s the most flexible also gives you a free seven-category upgrade within your stateroom category. You have to understand you’re not moving from a balcony to a suite at these prices, just to a better balcony. Most of the Fun Select Plus terms will be part of the price.
